Just because you're married [to the president] doesn't mean you've given up your right to have and opinion.

My life really began when I married my husband.

It is true that when you're in the White House alone, it is a lonely place. Big and lonely.

I'm doing what I want to do.

The White House belongs to all Americans. It's supposed to be something we're proud of.

I was doing everything I could think of to protect my husband and keep him alive.

I don't talk about political matters. That's not my department.
